55: Chapter 26 Funeral_2 55: Chapter 26 Funeral_2 He was very strong and it didn’t take much ti to deal with the twisted Ma Da, the delay until now was entirely for Ma Da’s last wish.
“No, let do it…
let do it…” Starfire’s eyes were blood-red as he clenched his teeth in response.
He picked up a glove, which was a weapon custom-made from the Equipnt Departnt.
It appeared to be an elegant fabric glove, but it could generate sparks or flas through friction and snapping fingers.
Combined with the fla control of the Path of Zero, Starfire’s abilities were unleashed.
Just a snap of his fingers and a rub of his palms were enough to release the flas directly.
This was indeed much easier to use than Li Yelai’s Jet Axe and also easier to conceal.
There was no helping it, the ability of the Path of Zero was just that aweso.
With blood-red eyes, Starfire calmly put on the glove and said, “Ma Da is a Second Awakening Spiritual Ability User, Night General, can you support ?”
He knew Ma Da’s strength; by himself, he might not be able to “send” Ma Da on his way.
“Of course!” Li Yelai responded with a heavy heart.
He then grabbed the Big Black Umbrella and checked the Silver Bell hidden in his pocket.
With his own Spiritual Ability Equipnt and the help of the Double Blade Knight, along with Starfire, they should be able to fulfill Ma Da’s last wish.
After that, Li Yelai glanced at the Processor.
“Go ahead, I won’t intervene unless it’s absolutely necessary,” the Processor replied with an ugly smile, “Be careful.
Ma Da is a Second Awakening Spiritual Ability User of the Wanxiang Path.
His first ability is the Virtual Realm Beast Language, which allows him to control animals, even Extraordinary Creatures.
His second ability is the Mimicry Timber Wolf Howl, a type of sonic attack.”
Li Yelai and Starfire nodded, then, using Aerial Stepping, they jumped directly onto the third-floor balcony of a residential building one after the other.
Upon entering the balcony, Li Yelai noticed sothing off about this room, which should have been the master bedroom but now was welded with many iron bars, with chains hanging from the ceiling.
A regular room turned into a prison.
The figure in a police uniform, with his back to them and facing the corner of the wall, supported himself against the wall and let out a non-human roar.
“Old Ma, are you okay?
Let’s go back…
and have so grilled at…” Starfire called out quietly with a certain hope.
He still hoped this was all a misunderstanding, or that Ma Da could still be saved.
The figure paused upon hearing him, then slowly turned around.
He revealed a terrifyingly twisted face, jaw and cheeks bulging, resembling so sort of canine.
Yet there was no fur, only flesh and bones rapidly growing under the skin, with blood dripping from the sharp tusks.
Moreover, his limbs were also twisted and elongated, with sharp claws growing on his fingers.
“Hehe…” Ma Da let out a hoarse voice, turning his body toward Starfire, his body arched, long arms already touching the ground.
Clearly, he was in so sort of attack stance.
“You…
how could you…” Starfire shook his head in total despair, then fiercely snapped his fingers.
Sparks flickered between his fingers.
Then, flas burst forth!
Frenzied flas instantly ignited the entire room.
Ma Da, startled by the flas, roared and rushed out of the room at high speed.
Hearing his friend’s wail, Starfire’s eyes turned blood-red, tears streaming down his face.
His hands, however, did not stop; waving his hand, he extinguished the room’s flas and chased after him.
Towards Ma Da, who was running upstairs, he snapped his fingers again.
Wrapped in flas, Ma Da scread in agony as he tumbled down the stairs.
However, at the mont he got up, he opened his mouth wide and let out a deafening wolf howl.
The wolf howl echoed down the corridor, and Starfire felt as if his brain had been hit by a hamr, even experiencing a mont of dizziness, and his vision montarily blurred.
This was the Wanxiang Path’s, Mimicry Timber Wolf Howl!
When Starfire’s vision cleared, Ma Da had already charged right in front of him.
The sharp claws swung down, heavily striking Starfire’s Spiritual Barrier.
As the claws slid down, a ripple appeared in the air before Starfire, tearing through his Spiritual Barrier!
Before the barrier could regenerate, the other claw instantly jabbed out, ready to gut Starfire in the next mont.
Starfire was alard and violently leaned back while snapping his fingers again.
At this distance, his flas exploded with the most power!
It could drain the opponent’s Spiritual Barrier to the greatest extent, even directly igniting the opponent’s body.
However, it was too late!
They were too close!
This was the weakness of the Path of Zero, where the ability’s power ranked among the strongest in various paths at the sa Second Awakening level.
But compared to other paths, the physical strength was significantly weaker.
Once approached, he could only rely on the Spiritual Barrier to withstand attacks.
As the Spiritual Barrier was torn through, it all depended on his own reactions.
“Hurry up!” Starfire shouted in his heart.
However, just as Ma Da lunged with his second claw, an even swifter cold light flashed by.
Ma Da himself staggered backward a few steps, allowing Starfire to dodge the lethal blow.
That long sword was one flung from behind Starfire!
The blade pierced directly through Ma Da’s shoulder, pinning him against the wall.
Ma Da lifted his ferocious face and saw the sudden attacker.
It was Li Yelai, following right behind Starfire!
The long sword he threw saved Starfire; this was the Overlord’s Spear!
It was also Li Yelai’s only long-range attack thod at the mont.
Using spiritual ability techniques, he could imbue weapons with enough spiritual energy to neutralize the opponent’s spiritual barrier over a distance,
achieving a surprise effect.
Yet, Ma Da, pinned to the wall, didn’t attempt to escape with the knife; instead, he looked at Li Yelai, a grin appearing on his fierce face.
“Thank you…” he seed to smile and whispered his thanks.
Li Yelai’s expression changed, but he sighed, “Goodbye…”
Li Yelai did not continue to attack, nor did he summon the Double Blade Knight.
Rather, in the next mont, burning flas engulfed all sound.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Starfire continuously snapped his fingers, sending wave after wave of flas towards the immobile Ma Da, until Ma Da’s burning body fell from the long sword, no longer responsive.
Only then did Starfire cease his assault, standing dumbstruck as he gazed at Ma Da’s corpse.
He knelt down, looking at Ma Da’s skeletal remains, falling into a silence as deep as death.
Amidst the silence, Li Yelai stepped forward, pulled out the Crimson Long Sword, patted Starfire on the shoulder, and left without a word.
As Li Yelai descended the stairs to the first floor, heart-wrenching cries echoed from above.
Li Yelai paused, and at last, he left the residential building expressionlessly.
Outside the building, over a dozen Spiritual Ability Users had already gathered.
They silently watched the building, bidding farewell to their teammate.
Subsequently, a few of them, faces filled with grief and anger, rushed into the building.
They couldn’t believe that veteran Ma Da had suddenly turned; there must be a reason.
They needed to find that reason, the potential mastermind!
Li Yelai was uninvolved; he then saw Cheese who had just arrived.
She was sitting in her new car, her arm resting on the window as she propped her chin up, staring blankly at the residential building.
The firelight illuminated her face, dreamy and wondrously blurred…
As Li Yelai approached, Cheese softly said, “If, one day…
I too turn, lose control, please liberate .
I’m afraid of pain…
make it quick.”
Li Yelai remained silent as Cheese poked his chest and chuckled, “When the ti cos, don’t be too reluctant, okay?
That would be the greatest relief for .”
“Don’t jinx it,” Li Yelai responded quietly.
The recent events had greatly impacted him; he seed to realize for the first ti the heavy responsibilities of a Processor.
To resist calamities, suppress taboos, watch over the populace, and ultimately, to draw the sword against forr teammates…
Could he truly fulfill these responsibilities?
Was he worthy?
No, what was there to doubt now?
Wasn’t this the path he had chosen?
Li Yelai exhaled slowly, his state of mind evolving, triggering sothing unexpected.
It drew the attention of several nearby Processors.
Li Yelai then felt a new change in his Soul Well.
It was expanding, exploring…
Thus, Li Yelai looked at Cheese and softly said,
“I’m about to advance…”
